I'm sorry to say that Kara did not win her game last night, but they did very well and all got second place trophies. Kara got an amazing triple at one point, and it was definitely a fun game to watch. The girls on the other team were like giants compared to our girls, even though they are all supposed to be 7 or 8... oh well!
Today I arrived at the church at about 8:45 and got there in time to see Mr. Lewis and Mr. John (Horst) get a trailer up on a trailer bed so that they could move it to the other side of the warehouse. After that, some guys from the team and I started digging a trench for the gutter pipes to drain into. About 5 minutes into digging, I snapped a shovel head right off. It was a pretty old shovel (obviously), but I traded jobs with another guy who was moving bricks from one place to another. The men wanted to move another trailer too, so a guy named Matt and I moved random stuff like a toilet, a basketball hoop backboard, scrap metal, and wood away so that a bulldozer could come and pull the trailer away. It was really hot today, so we were all sweting like crazy. Luckily, Allison and I helped in Trinity Cares (the free store) again which is inside and airconditioned. We see what needs to be restocked, go get it from one of two sheds, and stock it in the store. As we were working, Mr. Lewis came and told me that I was on pool duty this afternoon--a tough job =) I made the kids lunch and we headed to the pool for about 3 hours. Right now they're playing happily with legos, and I'm waiting for Mr. Lewis to call and tell me the plan for tonight. Hopefully we'll go to the church for dinner and I'll stay for the program tonight since teams are going to be sharing about what they've done so far.
Tomorrow, Allison and I are going out to work with one of the teams and then going to the block party that all the teams put on together for outreach. It should be fun!

I'd take that tough job anyday! We celebrated our anniversary tonight at the little restaurant up the hill across the pista where the Lewis family ziplined and we ate lunch--they brought us complementary tres leches after we ate! Ben did a great job and even had Anna asleep when we got home!
